Something is wrong with your modules installation. Run "dmesg" to see
what happened there.
Run "depmod -a" once, it might help if some stupid tool damaged the
module database (I had that "fun" with old dkms before).
Check the installed files (debsums linux-image-3.16.0-4-586)
Reinstall if needed (apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-3.16.0-4-586)

It's just the kernel from Jessie. See
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/linux-image-3.16.0-4-586
